This tour will give you an overall impression of the most significant historical sights of Vienna. You will see the Ringstrasse known for such magnificent buildings as the Museum of Applied Arts, the State Opera House, the Museum of Fine Arts and the Museum of Natural History.
Also see the Hofburg, the famous residence of Empress Elizabeth, affectionately known as "Sisi" to the Austrians, as well as a host of other fine architectural examples including the Parliament, City Hall, the Burgtheater, the University and the Votive Church.
The highlight of this tour will be a visit of the showrooms of Schonbrunn Palace, once the summer residence of the Hapsburg family and Maria Theresa, mother of Marie Antoinette, who later became Queen to Louis XVI. On the way back to the State Opera you will pass by the Belvedere Palace, the former summer residence of Prince Eugen.
You have the option to conclude your tour at this point, a 10 minute walk from the city center, or you can use a complimentary transfer on the Hop-on Hop-off bus back to the Opera House.
